As if this international film star didn't have enough legal troubles on his plate already, he's taking on the legacy of a particularly embattled music legend with an unauthorized and very unorthodox new project.

Axar.az reports citing Page Six, Edward Scissorhands star Johnny Depp is set to produce a strange-sounding new musical about the late Michael Jackson - told from the perspective of The Gloved One's sparkly glove.

The show, entitled For The Love Of A Glove: An Unauthorized Musical Fable About The Life Of Michael Jackson, As Told By His Glove, was written and conceived by Julien Nitzberg and is set to debut on Jan. 25 in Los Angeles, California.
